In the texts, Wilson alleged she knew of an actress who had reported a sexual assault incident; however, she later withdrew it for career favors. The messages are dated two days after the incident on September 5, 2023, which Wilson’s lawyers alleged MacInnes came to her the very next day to say she felt “uncomfortable” about the incident.The text messages read, “Charlotte says all good she just meant it was a bizarre situation, not that she personally felt uncomfortable x So all good there.” To this, Ghost replied, “oh thank f***for that, OMG, That’s hilarious, I nearly died.”A year later in July 2024, Wilson posted a video on her social media account alleging internal issues with the film’s team, and that a producer had misbehaved with “the lead actress of the film.”
